How bad is it that I had to do this in a private post first so that I'd be sure to actually know which movies I meant?  Maybe that means it's too hard...

Daaaaaamn.

Well, 10 is The Usual Suspects.

No other clues.

Yup.

2. When Harry Met Sally?
10. Pulp Fiction?

[identity profile] alphasarah.livejournal.com 2007-04-21 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Yup, nope.

(I did intentionally make 10 such that it could be either - but I meant the Usual Suspects)

3. Clueless

4. Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

7. Tank Girl

9. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Correct on all counts. I'm impressed.

It's a matter of thinking not only of what sort of film would match the keywords, but also thinking of what sort of film that you would enjoy watching.

If it were someone else, I probably wouldn't have gotten "Tank Girl"...

There you go, shattering my girlhood dreams of pretentious eclecticism.

I really want to say that 4 is Being John Malkovich, except I'm blanking on the dismemberment part. Unless it's meant figuratively.

I'm so bad at this. But completely fascinated by it.

Is 5 The Princess Bride?

[identity profile] alphasarah.livejournal.com 2007-04-21 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I have not seen Being John Malkovich all the way through. You are correct on #5, however.

[identity profile] cranky-dragon.livejournal.com 2007-04-22 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
#8 is Rocky Horror Picture Show, eh?

[identity profile] alphasarah.livejournal.com 2007-04-23 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
Of course it is.
